OFFICE OF THE SECRETARY OF DEFENSE
WASHINGTON
Dear Allen:
29 March 1948 N
I am inclosing the text of the speech made
by Senator Bridges in the Senate last Wednesday.
I an afraid that it will not be as informative
as we had expected. In checking back into last
week's news reports, I find that on Thursday,
the 25th, Bridges made some vague statements to
the press in which he appeared as a sponsor of a
"Project X? to provide aid for anti-Communist
underground forces. In addition, on the 25th,
Representative John Davis Lodge spoke on the same
subject in the House, saying that we must have a
peacetime OSS.? I am asking for copies of Lodge's
speech and will send you one.
I am looking forward to seeing you on
Saturday.
Sincerely,
Robert Blum
Incl.
Allen W. Dales, Esq.
